Chapter 341: 341 Learn High-Ranking Spell_1

The second way to acquire high-ranking spells is to learn them from books.

This method has a higher threshold.

For example, Su Yu, only after obtaining the [Silver Pine Spire’s Library Access Rune] could he read advanced magic books.

The advanced magic books in the library are the cornerstone of the Silver Pine Spire, and they’re not easily accessible.

Moreover, learning from books has one downside, which is its randomness.

The process of mastering high-ranking spells through reading is somewhat like fishing.

Sometimes luck is good, and you catch fish one after another. Sometimes, however, you catch nothing and return home with an empty bucket.

The same goes for reading; sometimes inspiration strikes, and you master several spells in a row, feeling like the chosen one;

Alternatively, the mind can go blank, wasting a day without any progress, unsure of what you’ve gleaned from the text.

However, Su Yu is a rich man, and rich men have their own solutions.

That night, in a quiet room in the Silver Pine Spire’s library, Su Yu was studying an advanced Ice Magic book.

The title of it was “Ice and Fire, the Ultimate Joy”.

The theory in the book is:

When a Mage releases high-ranking ice spells, large volumes of ice generate massive heat, causing the surroundings of the Mage to dramatically rise in temperature.

The rapidly rising temperature creates favorable conditions for the Mage to release fire spells, making these spells twice as effective.

The Mage can release fire spells to lower the surrounding temperature, then cast high-ranking ice spells again.

Through this cycle, the maximum efficiency of spell output can be achieved.

Just as Su Yu was engrossed in his reading, he received a private message from [Nuclear Wastewater] from Japan.

Nuclear Wastewater: “Boss, I have secured all the potions you need! We are now outside the Silver Pine Spire.”

Su Yu: “Okay, I’ll send a servant to receive you.”

Soon after, an NPC servant of the Silver Pine Spire brought the euphoric Nuclear Wastewater into Su Yu’s quiet room.

Seeing Nuclear Wastewater’s flushed and excited face, Su Yu was a bit puzzled, “What’s happened to you, Nuclear Wastewater? You haven’t actually gone to Japan and had a gene mutation from drinking nuclear wastewater, have you?”

“Of course not. Boss, just check out the goods!”

Nuclear Wastewater carefully pulled a ruby box from his backpack and placed it on the table in front of Su Yu.

When he opened the box, a row of neatly arranged potions were inside.

[Master-Level Wisdom Elixir], [Master-Level Meditation Potion], [Memory Enhancing Elixir], [Thought-Enhancing Mixture]….

There were 8 different potions. Each type had 20 bottles.

These potions were purchased by Su Yu to aid in his reading.

With the aid of these potions, his learning efficiency could be increased by at least 3-5 times!

After confirming the potions were correct, Su Yu kept the box in his backpack.

“Boss,” Nuclear Wastewater excitedly said, “Guess how many spiritual energy coins we spent to buy these potions?”

“Market value for these potions is probably 800,000 spiritual energy coins, right? What, you guys bought them at a discount?” Su Yu smiled.

It seemed that Nuclear Wastewater and his team had managed to get a good deal, which was why they were so excited.

“Indeed, we bought them at a price much lower than the market value!” Nuclear Wastewater responded excitedly, “Our team didn’t buy from the potion shop that you mentioned but found Dreyk, the Master Alchemist, through a special method.”

“Master Dreyk has racked up a huge debt from gambling and urgently needs money to pay it off, so we bought all these potions at a low price of 350,000 spiritual energy coins!”

“350,000 spiritual energy coins?” Su Yu’s eyes lit up.

350,000 spiritual energy coins were almost an equivalent of the cost price. Nuclear Wastewater and his team had really struck a major bargain!

“And, there’s more to it,” Nuclear Wastewater fished out a crumpled potion list from his backpack, “Master Dreyk said he would sell all the potions on this list at half price. You can take a look and see if you need them.”

Su Yu picked up the list and looked it over from top to bottom.

[Endless Depth Mixture], [Eternal Fury Potion], [Greedy Flame Amplifying Potion]…

While most potions on the list were quite ordinary, it also had mixed in several divine potions for a price that wasn’t inflated at all.

“I’ll take them all!” Su Yu slapped the list on the table.

“Nuclear Wastewater, you guys did an excellent job on this. Here’s what I’ll do, I’ll give 30% of the difference between the purchase price and the market price of these potions to your team as a reward!”

“Thirty percent?!” Nuclear Wastewater’s eyes widened.

The difference in the purchase price of the potions they brought back was 450,000 spiritual energy coins, and if he had calculated it correctly, the difference for the next batch would be about 600,000 coins.

If you add it up, their team could earn a reward of 315,000 spiritual energy coins, which would be 60,000 coins per person? !

The reward was astonishing! At this stage, a level 40 player can only earn a few hundred spiritual energy coins a day.

“Boss Ke, I…” Nuclear Wastewater was utterly grateful.

“No need to thank me, it’s what you deserve.” Su Yu chuckled, “Consider this money as an investment from me. Try to improve your strength, I hope to see you guys on the battlefield against Skuru’s central forces in the future.”

“Yes, Boss Ke!” Nuclear Wastewater promised loudly with a solemn look on his face.

After Nuclear Wastewater left, Su Yu began his process of understanding spells while drinking potions.

[Master-Level Wisdom Elixir], [Master-Level Meditation Potion], [Memory Enhancing Elixir]…

After consuming the potions one by one, his brain was flooded with explosive inspiration, and his thoughts seemed as active as a motor.

He immersed himself completely in the books.

Because Su Yu’s [Lighthouse Sudden Chill suit] mostly amplified ice, most of the advanced magic books that he browsed through were related to ice magic spells.

Boosted by the potions.

“Ding, congratulations on successfully mastering the 4th-order single spell [Chain Ice Arrow (ordinary)].”

“Ding, congratulations on successfully mastering the 4th-order range spell [Blizzard (Rare)].”

“Ding, congratulations on successfully mastering the 4th-order range spell [Ice Dragon Roar (Epic)].”

“Ding, congratulations on successfully mastering the 4th-order defense spell [Ice Barrier…”

The game prompt kept sounding in Su Yu’s ear, as one ice spell after another entered Su Yu’s skill list.

Afterwards, Su Yu practically never left the Silver Pine Spire, staying in the library to learn spells.

Time flew quickly.

Before he realized, it was already August 29th, the 7th day after Su Yu broke through the Sanctuary.

By now, he had finished drinking all 160 learning efficiency boosting potions, and Nuclear Wastewater had to fetch him another 80 bottles to barely meet his needs.

But the results of Su Yu’s studies over the past seven days were extraordinary.

By now, he had mastered all the 6th-order and below ice magic spells, including the two forbidden curse spells [Absolute Zero] and [Cold Abyss].

He had mastered more than half of the 4th and 5th-order fire spells, but he hadn’t had time to learn the 6th order spells and curses.

With these skills and the powerful boss template, his body’s strength had already surpassed that of many NPCs of the same rank!
